While Angela Bassett’s performance wasn’t what brought people from all over to watch the film, it was particularly notable with the actress’s grace and elegance in her role. In the opening weekend, the film made $180 million domestically and $331 million worldwide, making it the second largest opening film of 2022, only after Doctor Strange’s “Multiverse of Madness.” The numbers only continue to grow, passing $773 million in the global box office and enjoying its fifth weekend as number one.Ĭoogler found the movie’s stride in overcoming loss, confronting colonialism and giving power to the matriarchal figures. After the unfortunate passing of Boseman in 2020, fans everywhere flooded the theaters to see what the world of Wakanda had become without him. “Wakanda Forever” didn’t beat out its predecessor in sales, but it came very close. The second installation of the series, “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever”, has proved that there is just a voracious appetite for these kinds of narratives. These numbers gave “Black Panther” plenty of impressive feats-in a four-day weekend, the film took third place for having the highest gross sales, and was only the fifth movie to debut with over $200 million on an opening weekend. During the 4-day-opening weekend, the first “Black Panther” made $242 million in domestic box office sales alone, and 168.7 million in international sales. With fans flocking to theaters, the first film set high numbers in sales. This ignited an excitement in movie go-ers who look forward to seeing diversity on the screen and behind the camera. This was fulfilled when “Black Panther” came out in 2018, the first Marvel Studios film with a Black director, Ryan Coogler, and a predominantly Black cast. Since the character was first introduced during “Captain America: Civil War” in 2016, fans had been itching to get more of Chadwick Boseman on screen.

“Black Panther” has been a roaring success.
